The London Mozart Players (LMP) has launched an on-line initiative, At home with LMP, which will provide a range of on-line context in the wake of the closure of live performances. The range will include solo performances from musicians associated with the group.
On Saturday, classical guitarist Craig Ogden launches the first of LMP's Saturday Sessions with a live-streamed recital including music by Scarlatti and Rodrigo. Also this week, the Marmen Quartet in Schubert, a conducting workshop from Hilaray Davan-Wetton and a family-friendly performance on Friday.
London Mozart Players and pianist Howard Shelley were due to perform the last concert of their 2019/20 Piano Explored lunchtime series at St John’s Smith Square on Wednesday 1 April. With the temporary closure of St John’s Smith Square, the concert will no longer take place, so instead LMP will be broadcasting an introduction from Howard Shelley – filmed from his own home – which will unpack Franz Xaver Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 2 in E flat in his usual charming fashion, with excerpts performed to camera. The broadcast is planned to go live via LMP’s Facebook page at 1.05pm on Wednesday 1 April.
